I really don't think it should. I do not want to see source files full of
difficult-to-maintain and unnecessary "using" boilerplate a la Java
"import". At least with Java imports, there are really good tools for
managing the mess; we don't have those tools for C++.

Jesus called them together and said, “You know that the rulers of the
Gentiles lord it over them, and their high officials exercise authority
over them. Not so with you. Instead, whoever wants to become great among
you must be your servant, and whoever wants to be first must be your
slave — just
as the Son of Man did not come to be served, but to serve, and to give his
life as a ransom for many.” [Matthew 20:25-28]
